"Oh dear boy, you do." She laughed softly as she held up her hands, hoping he would drop his guard. Today there were no real weapons on her, and she would prefer to keep him alive besides. He could be an ally, blood magic and all. "This is obviously your first time testing your powers, you want to see what you can do. Let me tell you, it's far more than that."
"How do you know?" Atticus' curiosity won out over his instinct as he put the knife back into its sheath. From the looks of it she hadn't been out here hunting anyone, there was a backpack over her shoulder and grass stains on her knees. Maybe she was running, or searching for something other than people.
Dropping her own guard as he did she approached now, not wanting others to be privy to a private conversation. "I've seen it before. Blood magic. Plenty of magic, to be truthful. Usually closer than this though." Avoiding telling him about her parents for now could be key, he would likely bolt at the mention of hunters. "I could give you better tattoos than that." Reaching out she grasped his forearm, inspecting the work. It was a little rough, but not terrible.
